This is why I have not done this on my car yet. I have my hand on the shifter a lot and if there is a noticeable transition it's going to bug me. I wish they would fix/change this. You can be very precise with carbon fiber so that can't be the reason. I find it odd that an OEM part like this doesn't fit perfectly. My OEM carbon fiber mirror caps (for example) fit absolutely perfect.

Oh well... I will sit tight until I hear people reporting it fits like a glove (might not ever happen lol).
